今天我学会控制情绪
The tides advance; the tidesrecede. Winter goes and summer comes. summer wanes and the cold increases. The sun rises;the sun sets. The moon is full; the moon is black. The birds arrive; the birds depart. Flowersbloom; flowers fade. Seeds are sown; harvests are reaped. all nature is a circle of moods and Iam a part of nature and so, like the tides, my moods will rise; my moods will fall.
潮起潮落,冬去春来,夏末秋至,日出日落,月圆月缺,雁来雁往,花飞花谢,草长瓜熟,自然界万物都在循环往复的变化中,我也不例外,情绪会时好时坏。
Today I will be master of my emotions.
今天我学会控制情绪。
It is one of nature"s tricks, little understood, that each day I awaken with moods that havechanged from yesterday. Yesterday"s joy wilI become today"s sadness; yet today"s sadness willgrow into tomorrow"s joy. Inside me is a wheel, constantly turning from sadness to joy, fromexultation to depression, from happiness to melancholy. Like the flowers, today"s full bloomof joy will fade and wither into despondency, yet I will remember that as today"s dead flowercarries the seed of tomorrow"s bloom so, too, does today"s sadness carry the seed oftomorrow"s joy.
这是大自然的玩笑,很少有人窥破天机。每天我醒来时,不再有旧日的心情。昨日的快乐变成今天的哀愁,今天的悲伤又转为明日的喜悦。我心中像一只轮子不停地转着,由乐而悲,由悲而喜,由喜而忧。这就好比花儿的变化,今天枯败的花儿蕴藏着明天新生的种子,今天的悲伤也预示着明天的快乐。
Today I will be master of my emotions.
今天我学会控制情绪。
And how will I master these emotions so that each day will be productive? For unless my moodis right the day will be a failure. Trees and plants depend on the weather to flourish but I makemy own weather, yea I transport it with me. If I bring rain and gloom and darkness andpessimism to my customers then they will react with rain and gloom and darkness andpessimism and they will purchase naught. If I bring joy and enthusiasm and brightness andlaughter to my customers they will react with joy and enthusiasm and brightness and laughterand my weather will produce a harvest of sales and a granary of gold for me.
我怎样才能控制情绪,以使每天卓有成效呢?除非我心平气和,否则迎来的又将是失败的一天。花草树木,随着气候的变化而生长,但是我为自己创造天气。我要学会用自己的心灵弥补气候的不足。如果我为顾客带来风雨、忧郁、黑暗和悲观,那么他们也会报之于风雨、忧郁、黑暗和悲观,而他们什么也不会买。相反的,如果我们为顾客献上欢乐、喜悦、光明和笑声,他们也会报之以欢乐、喜悦、光明和笑声,我就能获得销售上的丰收,赚取成仓的金币。
Today I will be master of my emotions.
今天我学会控制情绪。
And how will I master my emotions so that every day is a happy day, and a productive one? Iwill learn this secret of the ages: Weak is he who permits his thoughts to control his actions;strong is he who forces his actions to control his thoughts. Each day, when I awaken, I willfollow this plan of battle before I am captured by the forces of sadness, self-pity and failure.
我怎样才能控制情绪,让每天充满幸福和欢乐?我要学会这个千古秘诀:弱者任思绪控制行为,强者让行控制思绪。每天醒来当我被悲伤、自怜、失败的情绪包围时,我就这样与之对抗。
If I feel depressed I will sing. If I feel sad I will laugh. If I feel ill I will double my labor. If I feelfear I will plunge ahead. If I feel inferior I will wear new garments. If I feel uncertain I will raisemy voice. If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come. If I feel incompetent I will rememberpast success. If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals. Today I will be master of myemotions.
沮丧时,我引吭高歌。 悲伤时,我开怀大笑。 病痛时,我加倍工作。 恐惧时,我勇往直前。 自卑时,我换上新装。 不安时,我提高嗓声。 穷困潦倒时,我想象未来的富有。 力不从心时,我回想过去的成功。 自轻自贱时,我想想自己的目标。 总之,今天我要学会控制自己的情绪。
Henceforth, I will know that only those with inferior ability can always be at their best, and I amnot inferior. There will be days When I must IN THE WORLD constantly struggle againstforces which would tear me down. Those such as despair and sadness are simple torecognize but there are others which approach with a smile and the hand of friendship andthey can also destroy me. Against them, too, I must never relinquish control.
从今往后,我明白了,只有低能者才会江郎才尽,我并非低能者,我必须不断对抗那限些企图摧垮我的力量。失望与悲伤一眼就会被识破,而 其它 许多敌人是不易觉察的。它们往往面带微笑,却随时可能将我们摧垮。对它们,我们永远不能放松警惕。
If I become overconfident I will recall my failures. If I overindulge I will think of past hungers. If Ifeel complacency I will remember my competition. If I enjoy moments of greatness I willremember moments of shame. If I feel all-powerful I will try to stop the wind. If I attain greatwealth I will remember one unfed mouth. If l become overly proud I will remember a moment ofweakness. If I feel my skill is unmatched I will look at the stars. Today I will be master of myemotions.
自高自大时,我要追寻失败的记忆。 纵情得意时,我要记得挨饿的日子。 洋洋得意时,我要想想竞争的对手。 沾沾自喜时,不要忘了那忍辱的时刻。 自以为是时,看看自己能否让步驻步。 腰缠万贯时,想想那些食不果腹的人。 骄傲自满时,要想到自己怯懦的时候。 不可一世时,让我抬头,仰望群星。 今天我学会控制情绪。
And with this new knowledge I will also understand and recognize the moods of him on whomI call. I will make allowances for his anger and irritation of today for he knows not the secret ofcontrolling his mind. I can withstand his arrows and insults for now I know that tomorrow hewill change and be a joy to approach.
有了这项新本领,我也更能体察别人的情绪变化。我宽容怒气冲冲的人,因为他尚未懂得控制自己的情绪,就可以忍受他的指责与辱骂,因为我知道明天他会改变,重新变得随和。
No longer will I judge a man on one meeting; no longer will I fail to call again tomorrow on hewho meets me with hate today. This day he will not buy gold chariots for a penny, yettomorrow he would exchange his home for a tree. My knowledge of this secret will be my keyto great wealth.
我不再只凭一面之交来判断一个人,也不再一时的怨恨与人绝交,今天不肯花一分钱买金蓬马车的人,明天也许会用全部家当换树苗。知道了这个秘密,我可以获得极大的财富。
Today l will be master of my emotions.
今天我学会控制情绪。
Henceforth I will recognize and identify the mystery of moods in all mankind, and in me. Fromthis moment I am prepared to control whatever personality awakes in me each day. I willmaster my moods through positive action and when I master my moods I will control mydestiny.
我从此领悟人类情绪的变化的奥秘。对于自己千变万化的个性,我不再听之任之,我知道,只有积极主动地控制情绪,才能掌握自己的命运。
Today I control my destiny, and my destiny is to become the greatest salesman in the world!
我控制自己的命运就是成为世界上最伟大的推销员!
